Mempool is the fully-featured mempool visualizer, explorer, and API service running at mempool.space.
It is an open-source project developed and operated for the benefit of the Bitcoin community, with a focus on the emerging transaction fee market that is evolving Bitcoin into a multi-layer ecosystem.
Mempool can be self-hosted on a wide variety of your own hardware, ranging from a simple one-click installation on a Raspberry Pi full-node distro all the way to a robust production instance on a powerful FreeBSD server.
Most people should use a one-click install method. Other install methods are meant for developers and others with experience managing servers.
Mempool can be conveniently installed on the following full-node distros:
We highly recommend you deploy your own Mempool instance this way. No matter which option you pick, you'll be able to get your own fully-sovereign instance of Mempool up quickly without needing to fiddle with any settings.
Mempool can be installed in other ways too, but we only recommend doing so if you're a developer, have experience managing servers, or otherwise know what you're doing.

docker/directory for instructions on deploying Mempool with Docker. - See the
backend/andfrontend/directories for manual install instructions oriented for developers. - See the
production/directory for guidance on setting up a more serious Mempool instance designed for high performance at scale.
